Golden light, passing through the slits of the curtains, fell on his face, and he felt the warm touch. Zheng Zhao opened his bleary eyes and then looked at the unfamiliar ceiling, plunging into a deep state of confusion.
After a long time, his brain began to turn around. The scenes that happened yesterday were also flashing past in his mind.
The options on the computer screen were "horror cycle," "biohazard," "tastebiter." These things seemed like dreams, so unrealistic.
Even now, Zheng Zha still has some doubts whether he is just having an incredibly bizarre nightmare, and when the dream wakes up, he will once again become that zombie-like creature, living in numbness amidst decay and corruption.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The knocking interrupted Zheng Zhao's train of thought, and he suddenly sat up in bed, discovering that the environment around him was not as unfamiliar as he had first thought. It seemed as though he had seen it somewhere before.
It came back to him. This was the arrangement of his childhood bedroom, a place filled with countless beautiful memories with her. When he was imagining the room before, his mind subconsciously conjured up this image.
"Luoli..."
Zheng Zhao mumbled the name that haunted his soul, but at this moment, the knocking sound rang again, which made him a little irritable. However, thinking of his current situation, he could only suppress the inexplicable anger and left the room.
"You really can sleep, it's almost 12 hours from yesterday to now!"
Jian Lan looked at Zheng Zhao, who had just woken up, and muttered softly. Then he pointed in the direction of the platform hall and smiled, "Let's go. First, let's have breakfast. Now only you are waiting."
Zheng Zha looked in the direction indicated by Jian Lan's finger and indeed saw the figures of Wu Xian, Li Xiaoyi, and Mou Gang.
Moreover, the appearance of this platform hall was completely different from yesterday. It was no longer just a bald patch with nothing but white walls. Now there were sofas, coffee tables, and dining tables.
Especially that enormous screen, almost the size of a home cinema, filled almost his entire view. What was being played on it was the trailer of a movie called "Biohazard".
Zheng Zha watched as Mathew was cut into pieces by a laser net on the screen, and his expression flickered slightly dazed. By the time he reacted, he had already walked over to the side of a round dining table.
Li Xiaoyi and Mou Gang looked over, greeted them politely, and Wu Xian nodded slightly and said faintly, "Don't just stand there, eat first. Talk about business later."
"Ah...oh oh!"
Hearing this, Zheng Zha immediately responded and then pulled out an empty chair and sat down, his gaze falling on the table filled with plates. After seeing what was on them, his expression involuntarily faltered.
The breakfast was very abundant, with more than a dozen plates. However, aside from milk, soy milk, oil sticks, and bao zi, most of the dishes were related to eggs.
Like poached eggs, boiled eggs, tea eggs, egg fried rice, fried rice with egg, omelette, egg soup, egg salad, and tarts… practically embodying what is called "18 ways to murder eggs", even Zheng Zha claimed to have seen a lot in the world, he had not seen such original breakfast feast.
"Cough cough!"
Jian Lan coughed twice and looked embarrassed on his face, "I'm sorry, I've never really learned how to cook, so just bear with me for now. I will study it later when I have time."
"That's why you don't just directly exchange a table of food with the supreme god? Why do you insist on cooking it yourself?"
Wu Xian was also somewhat speechless. Although the taste of these eggs was indeed quite good, eating so many eggs in one meal might raise cholesterol levels in the future.
What? You said the Supreme God can cure it, so there's nothing to worry about!
"It's different. This is our first meal together in the Zhongzhou Team. It should be formal at least."
Jian Lan smiled and personally peeled a tea egg and handed it in front of Wu Xian.
"I haven't officially congratulated you on becoming the captain yet, and thank you for your help yesterday. If it weren't for you, we would have died so many times over. Here is a small tea egg, hoping you will like it as a token of gratitude."
Hearing this, Li Xiaoyi and Mou Gang also realized it, following suit. Even Zheng Zha also scooped a bowl of egg fried rice, implying that all their gratitude was contained within the eggs. They were all taking turns to impress each other with their skills.
Wu Xian rolled his eyes and took the tea egg in hand, biting into it and said indistinctly, "Alright, I've felt your intentions. But don't keep calling me captain, it's kind of awkward. Just call me Wu Xian or Xiao Wu normally. From now on, we're all partners supporting each other; there's no need to be so formal."
"Okay, teammate Wu Xian, you're right. From today onwards, we are all companions!"
For some reason, when he heard the words "comrades," a certain stir happened in Zheng Zha's numb heart, and a bright smile appeared on his face.
"All right, let's eat. After we're full and satisfied, I'll teach you how to make exchanges with the Supreme God, as well as some things you must know and pay attention to."
The expressions of the others immediately became serious, and they began to deal with the full egg banquet in front of them. Their gazes occasionally flicked towards the TV screen with zombies, as if they were using them to accompany their meal.
Approximately twenty minutes later, all the eggs on the table had been devoured like a tornado, with not even a speck of leftovers in the dishes.
As can be seen, although there were all sorts of complaints on the lips, when it comes to deliciousness, it's still delicious.
After all, these eggs and condiments come from the space of the Supreme God. As long as the cooking skills are not too poor, they can still make dishes comparable to those of star-rated hotels.
Mou Gang took on the job of washing the dishes, but Wu Xian stopped him and snapped his fingers. Afterward, the originally messy table instantly became brand new, a spectacle like magic that left everyone in awe.
"Don't be envious. As I told you in "Biohazard," here you can have everything, exchange for anything you want, including services... of course, the premise is that you have enough reward points."
Wu Xian looked at everyone and spoke more seriously, "Now, let's talk about the rewards you gained in the horror films. Don't hide anything. Only by knowing these can I guide you on how to use reward points rationally to achieve the best results."
"I have only 1,000 basic reward points. That's all I have."
Although she is a woman, Jian Lan has an unexpectedly proactive personality and is almost always the first to speak up.
"Me too."
"I only have 1,000 basic reward points as well."
Li Xiaoyi and Mou Gang also said, "Me too," and as soon as they finished speaking, the four of them, including Wu Xian, all looked at the last person with curiosity on their faces.
Zheng Zha felt a little embarrassed and scratched his cheek, whispering, "Besides the basic 1,000 points, I also got 2,000 reward points and a C-class plot when I was in the laser channel."
Damn! I have already snatched up all the rewards, and now there are more here! The supreme god, you're too doting on me!
Wu Xian's mouth twitched, but thinking of Zheng Zha's identity as the reborn being from the Cosmic Fragment of PanGu, he felt a little relieved and then smiled at Zheng Zha, saying, "Not bad. As a new member, to get such rewards in your first horror film is very impressive. At least better than when I started, with great potential ahead."
